It is a duplex house in quiet residential area. The space is not divided by those families but is consisted of living space and its supporting space for both families all together. Those two different spaces are connected by corridor which gives an impression of outdoor space. 1.8m wide and 9m highwoodenspace by small beams and plywood necessarily make wall and floor for kitchen, bathroom and closet.
